On a island at sea a week after coming back

Kasumi knew that Ranma was training for something big but she just couldn't help but worry about it. The fights he had at home never had the stakes like the one he was preparing for now. The fate of the planet was at stake and she knew it. Looking about the house she was in she sighed for a moment and looked out the window to see Ranma in the middle of his training. Ever since she had come here with him she knew that things were going to change but she had so much time on her hands and she doubted she could give Ranma any challenge. Kasumi had liked to do martial arts when she was younger but when her mother died she had given up everything to help her family. Only her sun up to sun down working with the house kept her in shape as she did everything in a certain way.

"Oh my... I'm so terribly bored. With only cleaning for one person who helps out things don't take all day to do. Mother did I make the right choice? What would you think of me? My choices of keeping up the family till now after you died? Would you be sad or happy? " Kasumi grasped the locket she has always on hidden beneath the neck of her dress. It was her mothers locket and when she was feeling confused or sad she would grasp it for strength and a warm feeling would flow through her. Kasumi felt the warmth of the locket spread through her again and couldn't but feel it was her mother telling her something.

"Oh mother what should I do? I'm really worried over this whole thing and I'm scared that Ranma will die. I don't know if I could take it if he died maybe its time I showed him my secret.." Kasumi looked down at the floor and a tear drop fell from her eye onto the floor. Suddenly she felt hand on her face and she looks up to see Ranma standing there with a concerned look on his face. "Kasumi... are you alright?" Kasumi didn't know what to do she could break down and cling to him or just try to keep up her image of before. "Kasumi... I know somethings wrong... I can smell it and your aura is giving off sadness and worry please tell me whats wrong."

Kasumi looks at Ranma before hugging him hard. " I'm sorry Ranma for not helping you out more but I didn't think what I could would help any at Nermia." Ranma just rubbed her back soothingly. "Do what Kasumi?" Kasumi looked at the floor before speaking. "I can do magic Ranma. I once read a manga called slayers and I was fascinated by it. I attempted a spell of it and it me show you Ranma." Ranma looks at her and nods and steps puts her hands together in pray and starts a chant. "Oh blessed humble hand of god, blessed life and breath of mother earth, I pray thee come before me, show your great compassion and deliver us. Recovery."

Ranma blinked as the light wrapped around him and the weariness from his morning training session was lifted and he felt his like he just had a good nights sleep. "Kasumi... this... what?" Ranma watched as Kasumi wiped the sweat off her brow. "Casting a recovery spell with the full chant takes up quite a bit of energy. I know other spells as well but I cannot use many of the high ones not with chanting them out for power." Ranma just looked at her and picked her up from her knees and hugged her holding her close. "Its ok Kasumi... we can work on it. I can imagine why you kept this a secret. Everyone would come to you for help and you would get no rest. What else can you do?"

Kasumi wipes a tear from her eye and gives Ranma a grateful smile. "I can do flying spells and defensive ones and I can do few attack spells as well. I found more then just recovery work in this world but I havn't tried one spell do to its huge destructive power and how much it would drain me. I want to help Ranma... I want to help you I can't just stand by anymore and let you keep risking yourself. You mean so much to me I don't know how long I could live if you were to die." Ranma eyes were wide and he slowly eased on his hug and put his hands on Kasumi's face. "Kasumi... do you love me?"

Kasumi eyes widen and she just started to Ranma she managed to nod her head. "Kasumi... you don't know how much that means to me. No one in my life has said this except my birth mother you don't know just how much this truly means to me. But how could you? In your world I caused so much trouble and most people thought I was a freak." Kasumi placed her hand on Ranma's face and lowered his eyes to hers."your not a freak Ranma... you are what you are because that is the way you were born. When I first met you it was such a shock that I left you to Akane. The next day I knew it was a mistake because I saw your kind nature and loyalty.... I think I had feelings for you since then but I never acted on them because of your engagement and because I didn't want you to see me like the other girls.I didn't want to scare you away."

Ranma lets a smile grace his face and reaches into the air and pulls out a small black box out of subspace. Kasumi's eyes widen as he gets on his knees and offers the box to her open. "Kasumi Tendo.... will you marry me?" Kasumi just stared at the ring which was gold with engravings of looked like flowers and a diamond flanked by saphires. "Oh Ranma... of course I will." Ranma takes the ring out and puts it on her finger and grabs her in a hug. "I love you Kasumi." Kasumi looked that ring on her finger and tighted her hug. "I love you to Ranma please don't leave me."
